Yay congrats Crams41!
@Shay it is really frustrating that your doctor is just brushing it off. Plus if they know the IUD you had can cause issues for so long after you take it off, I feel like they shouldn't prescribe it any more or at least they should warn their patients appropriately (I'm sure you weren't told that could happen after you had it removed). Unfortunately informed consent is not something doctors seem to worry that much about these days! Have you tried to see another doctor? If it's been a year, most doctors will start looking into fertility testing and potential treatment after a year of trying regardless of the type of birth control you used beforehand.

Eeek congratulations @crams41!
That is amazing news

So, I bought a test from another brand yesterday. Was hoping for a more clear line, but it's pretty faint still..

With a flash.

@Pandorica it is faint but I can see it. Maybe give it a few more days to darken and if it doesn't but it's still there then try a digital?

@Burkette - I think I'll try a digital in a fre days, but only if it gets stronger. Don't want to see a "Not Pregnant" again..

The definitive words are definitely more painful than the absence of a line

I'm keeping everything crossed for you!!

Ladies please can you let me know if you think tonight's shadow on my test appears darker than last night and this morning. I'm testing out my trigger and it was barely there this morning. Want to know if I getting my hopes up or if I have line eyes! Top is last night, bottom is tonight xx

And this was this morning..

@pandorica looks like it's getting darker!

@scuba looks like your lines are getting darker as well!!

AFM got my hcg levels back today.
7/17 at 12:30 pm (9dpo) was at 11
7/19 at 12:45 pm (11dpo) at 49

They want me to go back on next Friday when I'd be 18dpo to check levels again. Looking good so far though...numbers are quadrupled so far.
